The Minnesota Orchestra will not be the first American orchestra to offer broadcasts over the Internet. But free live recordings available for an extended period are rare.
"If a music lover cannot attend one of our concerts or listen to the live broadcast, now they will have access to hear what they've done, at their leisure," music director Osmo V‹ns‹ said. "We are very pleased that MPR will help make our music widely available for people anywhere in the world."
